    I'd say Puzzle Bubble, it's an extremely wel done conversion
    Yeti Pingu Throw Second Edition is awesome too, I got 3663 meters in that one
    Oh, not sure if Kall's got these in his arcade though....

    My favorite arcade game (as in one actually on a coin-op arcade machine) would be Galaga, but I tend to prefer computer games of a similar vintage as I played more of these (my all-time favourite is the original Castle Wolfenstein on the Apple //e)

    Hey they made a conversion of that one too for ibProArcade, it's called Galagon 2004. Maybe Kall would like to add it
    The game can be found here (I bet Kall is registered).

    hmm you're right, download link isn't correct.
    But! If you can play it, you can rip it. It's a one-flash-file game. What I do is download the swf file with download accelerator (search source for url). Then download the game images (the big one you see beside the game (in example galaga1.gif) and the little one has the exact url but a 2 in the gif (i.e. galaga2.gif). Those 3 files is all you need. Add the game manually in the admincp
